Thanks to you and to Gavin! Great answer.

Can I assume then, that if an option isn't listed on the current list of CBOE options, that if it's a reasonable one to have, I can place an order and the specialist will create it for me? That makes me feel warm and fuzzy.

I know that isn't always the case. Some stocks don't have leaps, for example, like Pixar. I am sure I cannot ask to buy leaps and have them create them for me, but I'm rather vague about why that is.

Jim, <May never know the facts of the Intuit flap , which represents 10 % of Intuit's revenues , but it sure froze AAPL's stock and delayed any potential bondholder conversion> A possible delay strategy directed at bondholders (giving them a chance to reconsider conversion) till May 11 event? Cheers, Dennis
